I watched Estelle's 1939 register presentation and learned a few things. |

Strange I went into this register only this afternoon and could not find my mother nor myself aged 2. |

It has been updated to 2004. My FIL is there 1920 - 2004 but my mother's is still closed 1921 - 2005. They will have her married name as my parents married whilst rationing was still on. |

I know they have sorted out marriages Sylvia. 1951 was still in rationing time in UK but my cousin born in 1933 married in 1957, she died in the 80s and her entry is open so I knew they were working hard to bring it up to date, |

I read a post where it said that transcribers had transcribed columns, not lines. Different transcribers could be transcribing adjacent columns. |

ChrisofWessex - are the 'children' closed or missing? If they are closed then possibly either they are still alive or they haven't yet been matched up to a death record. |

Det - In Liverpool I checked my aunt's home - only child there was a cousin aged 7 months - I knew his elder brother was evacuated now it looks as if his sister was also. By Christmas 1942 she was back home - can recall sharing a bed with her. |

I've not ploughed through all the pages Berry kindly posted. But at least twice Estelle said that only civilians are listed not service personnel. |
